I continue to design high-performance cluster Ceph, petascale.
Scheduled to purchase a high-performance server, OS Windows 2016, for clients. Clients are in the Dockers.

Virtualization. It does not matter...
Clients run program written by them, which generates files of various sizes - from 1 KB to 200 GB (yes, creepy single file size). Network planning to use Infiniband 40 GB/s between clients and Ceph. Clients work with Ceph always on one, and always only either for record or for reading.
While I do not understand what Ceph technology is appropriate to use? Object, block, or file storage CephFS.
So far, it seems to me, i need to use MDS, CephFS and ceph-dokan

Please share the experience of how it is possible to provide access with minimal overhead (preferably zero :( ) Windows Ceph users to the server?
Ie how to make sure that the files generated by the program on Windows very quickly proved to Ceph.
